Rose Whitty
Mother Rose Whitty, O.P., (November 24, 1831-May 4, 1911) was an Irish Religious Sister and foundress of convents. She was a native of Dublin. Of her two sisters one became a Religious of the Sacred Heart; the other, like herself, joined the Dominican Order as a Religious Sister of the Third Order Regular.
Whitty entered St. Catherine's Convent, Sion Hill, Blackrock, Co. Dublin, in her nineteenth year, 25 March 1849. Seventeen years later, at the request of Bishop Patrick Moran, who then had charge of the Eastern Vicariate of South Africa, she with five others began their work at Port Elizabeth, 23 November 1867. She served for 25 years as prioress of Rosemary Convent, which she had founded. The diamond jubilee of her religious profession was celebrated in 1910, and a Mother Rose scholarship was founded as an appropriate memorial of her long devotion to the work of education.
Whitty's good health continued till within a month or two of her death in her 80th year. With every mark of public veneration her remains were laid to rest in the convent cemetery of Emerald Hill Priory, one of the convents which she had founded, on 6 May 1911.
